Distortion is good

Whether you need to punctuate a word, phrase or an entire song with an effect, VoiceTone X1 intensifies your vocals with its wide range of filtered and distorted sounds. Simply load one of the pre-set styles, tap the footswitch and you're ready to go. From there, the Drive and Filter controls can be modified to suit your voice or the song. Kick it on, kick it off, you're in control!

As simple as plugging in your mic

Gaining access to the studio quality sounds and intelligent processing of VoiceTone singles is as simple as plugging in your mic and turning the effect on. Of course, you can always change the style or the amount of effect, but you shouldn't need to unfold the manual unless you're making a fire.

Mic Control feature

The revolutionary and patent pending Mic Control circuit is built into each VoiceTone single pedal. This allows TC-Helicon's MP-75 Modern Performance Vocal microphone's thumb switch to turn your VoiceTone single's effect on and off. Picture having the freedom to kick-in your vocal effect while working the stage, not gazing at your feet. It gets really cool when you chain multiple VoiceTone singles pedals together and control each one independently or turn them all on or off in combination.

"you better know what you're doing with this pedals.... read the instructions and you'll be fine, but without them you're gonna s"

Sound:
you can get great sounds with it, as long as you know what you're doing it... im still learning it...
Ease of Use:
not so much... you gotta nail the settings between the mic input the effect volume and the feedback of the effect so when it's off people will hear you and when it's on you don't blow them away with your loudness... still learning it tho...
Quality:
it looks bullet proof... sturdy, the bottom has this anti slide plastic... so you don't need to Velcro it to your pedal board...
Value:
not that cheap tho... 130 bucks i paid...
The Wow Factor:
as i am not the mains singer... but the bass player... i guess i could have waited on it
Overall:
i'm not crazily exited about it... but i gotta play with it a few more days to figure out what sound i like, how to blend it with the band without my vocals not disappearing, how to avoid crazy feedback, and learn my setting for different kinds of stages and venues...

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

"An interesting pedal but difficult to use in a live setting."

Sound:
The various models are interesting, but the effect takes a noticable delay to come on, often clipping the entire first word of a phrase. Feedback is a real issue on same of the effects.
Feature:
No instruction manual was included. This would have been quite helpful.
Ease of Use:
Very difficult to adjust properly so that normal vocals are the same level as the effected ones. Very prone to feedback on some of the effects.
Quality:
Seems like a solid pedal.
Value:
Relatively expensive for a tool with its shortcomings.
Overall:
If there was an equivalent product I would be tempted to replace this one.
